Boldly bald for breast cancer

By Keely Dean

I'm now a Pink Hero

Did you know that every day 56 people in Australia are diagnosed with breast cancer and 9 people in Australia die every day from this disease?  

I've decided to shave my hair and raise funds for world-class breast cancer research to help National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) towards their vision of Zero Deaths from breast cancer.

Please support me and my pledge to save lives and make a difference.

Every donation, big or small, will get me closer to reaching my goal. Together, we can stop deaths from breast cancer.

Thank you EVERYONE who has supported my fundraiser and brought the grand total to $2135!! I'm excited to have raised so much towards breast cancer research - its a cause that is very close to my heart ❤️ 

$2000 goal achieved!!

Tuesday 21st Apr
Wow!! Thank you everyone for your wonderful support - together we've raised just over $2000 for breast cancer research!! But it doesn't end here. My fundraising page is open for another few days, so if you haven't had a chance to donate yet,,,,,,,,😘

The shave is done....

Monday 13th Apr
But there is still time to donate!! My page will be functioning for just under two more weeks - plenty of time to get to $2000.
 I've done the challenging thing - shaved my head BALD - all i ask of you is to donate a few dollars if you haven't already x x 

Last long hair wash

Sunday 5th Apr
I'm getting a bit nervous. Tomorrow my hair will be cut short - how short? I don't know! Pretty sure my friends are planning to have fun with this...... but I only have to worry about how it looks for four days, because then it gets shaved. Bald. Actually bald. Thats scary. For everyone. But mostly me. So if you haven't donated yet, please do . . . Its the whole reason I'm doing this. 
Will add a photo when I figure out how to 😀
 
 
 

New goal - Again!

Thursday 26th Mar
Thanks to the wonderful support I've received, I've reached my second goal of raising $1500. I've still got 2 weeks to go before I'm bald, so I'm upping the ante again ...... Let's see if we can get the total to $2000!!!

New goal

Saturday 21st Mar
On Thursday night, with the donations received at bowls, I reached my original fundraising goal of $1000. A huge THANK YOU to everyone who has contributed!!!
Given there is still 3 weeks before the scary shave, I've increased my goal to $1500. I have just over $300 to go - I reckon I can get there! But I need your support. 
$5, $10, whatever you can spare.... it all adds up 😘
